[ChefDeCabinet_Expert]: The design should begin with the anticipated dynamic load, not just the hardware rating. Wide drawers carrying concentrated loads require synchronized heavy-duty runners, reinforced drawer box construction, anti-racking geometry, thicker drawer bottoms, precision parallelism, and reduced drawer width-to-height ratios to prevent torsional distortion.
